African Dragon (The Team Book 3)

As tensions rise in central Africa, a newly formed army backed by Chinese military advisers is preparing to topple the elected government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with the goal of seizing its mineral wealth. The advisers have turned the force into a formidable fighting army, and a secret mine is searching for uranium and plutonium. The United States cannot allow a pro-Western democracy to fall, yet it also wants to avoid a direct clash with Beijing. The most practical answer is a small, elite unit known as The Team. With the clock running down, the unit must confront an army that vastly outnumbers it. To outsiders the mission looks close to suicide, but for these warriors it is simply another day's work.
